Redefining Resilience with a Lens of Compassion

Wednesday, March 12, 2025
2:00 -  3:30 p.m.

Zoom Webinar

Registration Fee: $25

OVERVIEW: The topic of resilience sometimes brings up complex feelings, especially when the word gets used in a way that dismisses the emotional toll of caregiving or dismisses the external, systemic factors that impact resilience, regardless of how good we are at coping. This webinar provides a supportive space for participants to process and reclaim what resilience means to them through interactive discussion. The webinar also provides compassion-based strategies that promote our everyday well-being as caregivers.

OBJECTIVES: After attending this Zoom webinar, the participant will be able to:

• Expand upon the standard definition of RESILIENCE and honor our own unique challenges with the pressures of remaining resilient as caregivers, 
• Explore what it means to bring a more multi-faceted and compassionate lens to resiliency,
• Discuss supportive practices that promote emotional regulation and self-compassion as caregivers.
